Use them along the edges of water gardens or ponds as accents, or as focal points at the ridge of a waterfall fixture. They lend themselves to simple or complex projects.

Like mushrooms, moss grows from spores. It relies on the wind to disperse the spores. So if you are using the rocks indoors or in terrariums, it will have to be replenished periodically. Once it is established though, it lifts off easily from wherever it is growing and attaches to almost anything, making transplanting a snap.

Moss grows in a variety of climates (hardiness zones 2-9). Since it obtains all its nutrients from the air (no real roots), moss requires only shade, acidic soil, and moisture. It hardiness ensures it will last a long time with minimal upkeep once established. It is also forgiving, in that it can relocate and re-arranged without the wilting or stress associated with another living decor.
